Fabulous program now on Innovations in Caregiving: COVID/caregiver intensity/mental health. New Massachusetts Caregiving Initiative working to keep family caregivers working and supported in the workplace and more! @Mass_Tech #SupportingCaregivers

I love this tool. So simple: You put one of each pill in it (so you can see the color & shape) & write down when to give it/what it's for. Anyone who fills the pillbox can use this guide to see exactly which medications go in each compartment of your loved one's pillbox. @PillMap
Finally, Simple, practical, affordable #medication management! Don't let a miscommunication of your #medications be your #medical challenge. Avoid unnecessary falls and medical #emergency
room visits. @BethSuereth

Let's stop viewing #healthcare as a location. Healthcare is not a hospital, clinic, office, #LTC facility. Healthcare should be a verb; an action of caring that sometimes uses these buildings. New models of care are needed that focus on action of caring, not buildings #CDNhealth

The 1st #COVID19 related, but not "caused" death for our family. How are we quantifying these deaths? "Elective" surgery postponed due to covid & a sudden death. 50 YO, two small children. Lives forever changed because of covid, but the loss will not be not assigned to the virus.

Please do this: Find out what to do if someone in your home develops #coronavirus symptoms. Write it down. Put it out in the open. This is mine. I taped it to an envelope that has documents stating our wishes & who should speak for each of us if needed. #caregiving #NoRegret

URGENT: As our troops face military base lockdowns and isolating quarantines, we need at least 267 more patriotic Americans like YOU to sign our card supporting them before midnight to meet our goal, but we're still missing your name. Will you sign the card now?

Were #patients & #caregivers co-designers of these "last resort" guidelines? I see no recognition of their input, which would be a grave misstep that must be corrected immediately. #COVID19Ontario thestar.com/news/canada/2020… via @torontostar

Great tip from @APlaceForMom for #CareGivers.
.
Caring for someone else can take a huge emotional toll, which is why it is so important to take a step back to make sure that you are caring for yourself and addressing your emotional needs.

As I sit through countless appts this week with new #HCPs, trying to address crisis after crisis with my sister, as her #caregiver I feel selfish wishing that even one of these doctors or nurses would turn to her & ask "How are those who help you at home in all of this?" #burnout
